Instagram 'Music Stickers' may soon let you share tunes with your Stories

A teardown of the latest version of the Android Instagram app, performed by TechCrunch, casts more light on the matter. The feature will allegedly come in the form of Music Stickers, which is an appropriate implementation given the platform, that will let users add a song to their Instagram Story. This would tie in quite well with Facebook's recent push for enabling users of third-party services, such as Spotify, GoPro, and SoundCloud to share content from these apps to their Facebook and Instagram Stories.
TechCrunch's app teardown reveals an unused "Search Music" feature built-in alongside the location and friend-mention sticker search options inside Instagram Stories. Music Stickers can be filtered by "Genre", "Moods", and "Trending", so users will be able to find the perfect soundtrack for their Story. How the system will function exactly, is not clear yet, but adding a Music Sticker to your video will likely play a clip from the song you've selected as background music to the video. As to how long that clip will be, remains to be seen.
